Cheerleaders

Actually, it all started with the name — CocoaCheerleaders. Apart from the wonderful alliteration, the combination of Cocoa and Cheering was simply too good to miss — I mean, how many of us haven’t attempted a front handspring step out, round-off backhandspring step-out, round-off back handspring, full-twisting layout when finally getting something to compile? (Hint: let go of the mouse first otherwise you can end up tripping over the cable. Or get a wireless mouse.)

Then one night, after a particularly nice meal with some particularly nice people in a Hunan restaurant in San Francisco, the idea behind CocoaCheerleaders actually took shape: a one-stop site that would bring together the very best in Cocoa-related websites, blogs, podcasts, mailing lists, books, and source code repositories, all mixed in with some cheerleading.

I’ll post more of the background information to the site on the PyrusMalus blog, including some of the fun technical aspects of the site.

So while it may have started as a joke, we’re serious about making it the best collection of Cocoa resources. If you know of any Cocoa-related sites or blogs that you think are worthy of a cheer, let us know!
